Map & Owner's Profile
Large Group Vacation Rental Lodge + Cabins on 1 Acre Sleeps 80
Year Purchased: 1989
Why the Owner Chose Gardner Mountain
We thought families, church groups, business school and club retreats needed a great place to gather together that was affordable, beautiful, big and designed for them. We had never been able to find a place like that for our family reunions and took a chanch.
The Unique Benefits at this Villa
Almost All our Guests say - "We've NEVER SEEN ANYTHING THIS BIG OR THIS FUNCTIONAL for our group!"
It's unique, designed to the "T" especially for groups, our only clients.
This is where we go, along with most of the locals. The beaches near the casinos are a bit of a zoo they say, and this has pristine Tahoe beauty, woods lining the beach for shade, great sandy beaches, and usually a lot less people.
This is about a mile away, and a great resource. Waterski, Catamaran rides, Jetski & Boat Rentals, Kayaks, The Beacon for lakeside food, drinks and entertainment,Horseback Riding, Bike rentals, etc.
Vintage Classic Tahoe House and Island of the Rich and Famous of the classic Tahoe heyday.
Just a short hike or bike ride away, feels like you're in paradise (which you are!)
Sleeps 20-60, or a few couples (if not rented to a group). 14 private rooms with baths AND Group Gathering House with double kitchen and home theater, Convertible meeting space. Almost as popular with groups as Mountain Home.
8BR-4BA home designed originally for 30, now sleeps 20 easily. Lots of room for activities, fenced yard, hot tub, home theater, free firewood, etc.

SETH AND REBECCA BROCHE took a risk, designed and built 3 large group places from 1989-2000Just For Larger Groups. People love them, and often comment they are the first place that's ever worked as well for a group gathering.

Best Family Reunion Yet
Guest: Twins4me
(Santa Cruz, CA)
Date of Stay: 06/05/10
Review Submitted: 07/12/10
My family of 42 stayed at the Mountain Home recently in June 2010. The property was especially geared for a group of our size or larger. Mountain Home's floorplan is set up ideally with bedrooms in blocks, so we could put family groups in the appropriate areas (such as those with babies away from the pool table/hot tub areas) The location of Mountain Home was convenient to hiking, biking, the lake and activities we took part in including the Renaissance Fair, Miniature Golf, shopping. And speaking of shopping it was located less than one mile from a grocery store, drug store and coffee house, so if we ever needed any item it was just a 15 minute roundtrip back to Mountain Home. Even though the property is located near shopping it is also on the route up towards Emerald Bay and had the woodsy feel. The property was clean and organized. We used only the beds available in the bedrooms and did not need to use the futons in the common areas, but they were especially nice to relax in and maybe catch a wink or two while watching a movie. The website photos of Mountain Home were very accurate and we we only surprised by the large size of the rooms and property. Mountain Home has all the amenities to provide entertainment at their location. We played volleyball, badminton, horseshoes, kayaking and pool as provided for as well as lots of use in the hot tub. The owners provided 2 firepits for us to use on the patio in the evenings as well as 2 BBQs. There was an abundance of seating available both inside and out. We only encountered one issue with a broken washing machine which was handled almost immediately by the maintenance person Efrain. We can't speak more highly than of the service we received from Rebecca and Efrain. If there was anything that came up or we needed they were there in no time and or called back immediately. We would definitely recommend this property for any other groups, whether you are a family or not. Everyone in the family agreed this was the best reunion yet and the best part was we got to spend a lot of time together and didn't have to leave the property to find things to do. We look forward to returning in 2012.
Recommended for:Adventure seekers, tourists without a car, families with teenagers, families with young children.
